Reason for closing:  Won't fix
Additional comments about closing:  fglrx isn't officially supported; probably needs to be patched to support the latest kernel

I suppose you were able to build it with 3.18? Isn't this suppose to be impossible with such an old GPU?

The Linux Kernel 3.18 Works but i testet also new Kernels.

The Catalyst drivers most likely need a patch for Linux 3.19.

There's no official Arch support for these drivers, so I'll have to close this task.
